Save yourself from a weekend of awful
Before moving back to San Jose ape was a happening convention. I've attended the last three years and not only is the show shrinking (it now uses a third of the rented space) the attendance and advertising is pitiful at best. With the amazing art vibe the bay area has there's no excuse for this show' s lackluster website, attendance, advertising, or turnout. Not even worth it to talk to other artists and creators.

Poor sales, low attendance, expensive
Do not travel from out of town for this event. The attendance is very low, thus resulting it not so great sales. Also, $300 for a table. I barely broke even with table and travel costs. I won't be returning.

Slowwwwww
APE 2016 was super slow. The attendance was a joke. Two day event, $300 for a table, and probably 300 people attended the entire weekend as guests...
